German Agricultural Schools.


Germany makes good showing in the pro-
visions made for the dissemination of agricult-
ural knowledge. A glance at the following
statistics will show how thorough are the means
of obtaining this knowledge. Prussia has four
higher agricultural colleges with some eighty
professorships; she has more than forty lesser
schools, all having model farms: she has five
special schools for the cultivation of meadows
and the scientific studies of methods of irrIga-
ton; she has one special school for the teaching
of those who desire to reclaim swamp lands; she
has two special schools for the teaching OF those
who intend to grow Industrial nurseries; she has
school for teaching horse -shoeng, for
teaching silk raising. for the raising of bees,
and one teaching the cultivation of fish, Be-
sides all these she has twenty special schools for
the education of gardeners and fifteen schools
for the training of those who are to cultivate
the grape
The example of Prussia has been initiated by
the other German states. The little kingdom
of Bavaria. scarcely larger than Massachusetts,
has twenty six agricultural colleges. besides
more than 200 agricultural associations. Wurt-
emburg. still smaller in area. has sixteen col
leges and seventy six associations Baden, with
a population of only a million, fourteen gri-
cultural colleges. besides four schools of garden
ing and forestry: Saxony. with its dense popu-
lation of two millions, compacted into a space
hardly larger than two American counties. has
four higher and twenty agricultural schools, be-
sides veterinary college and department. of
University of Leipsic. Saxe-Wemar.
with a population of than
900 souls, has three agricultural colleges,
besides agricultural department with fifteen
professorshps at the University of Jena. In
connection with this it is stated that the average
crop per in Germany is steadily growing
more. The contrast between this country and
Germany in the matter OF facilities for agrcult-
ural education is marked. and not at all hatter-
ing to our pride. May not the fact that the
average yield per acre of our staple crops dimin-
ishes by year be partially attributable to the
lack Of knowledge of their business on the part
of so many of our farmersl

We continue to find statements in the rural
journals that Earring down the curculios is only
i'm perfect remedy. This is because 1t is i'm
perfectly performed with cumbersome appli-
ances. We practiced it successfully more thar
fifty years ago. bat it by means applied
carelessly or in q slip shod manner. 1t was then
rather an experiment, and four boys carried the
two sheets, which we're spread under the trees
and a fifth hand struck and Jared
the insects down. The result of this Wig
liant application fine crops of plums
and baskets of golden aprcots. great i'm
provement was made by substituting iron plugs
to strike on instead of the small stub Of a sawed
limb, the still less efficient striking the bark
with a padded mallet. which some still continue
practice; and instead of the four boys to carry
the sheets, one man carries the stiffened frame
his left arm. and strikes the plug with his
right. We have practiced this improved mode
nineteen years, with never failure of a full
crop, at cost not exceeding six cents a tree
the only harm being in the overloaded branches
which have sometimes exhausted and injured
the trees when not trimmed by hand.
